UFC President Dana White sparked conversation this week after revealing the four figures that would make it into his MMA Mount Rushmore.

Unsurprisingly, White picked out the names that he believes have left behind the greatest legacies in the UFC and have made the biggest impact on the sport as a whole.

Jon Jones, Ronda Rousey, Conor McGregor and Georges St-Pierre are all incredibly deserving of their recognition for different reasons.

After the fans had their say on who they would exchange for their own personal lists, the founder of the promotion that hopes to stand side-by-side with the UFC in the future weighed in with his thoughts.

Donn Davis Lists Conor McGregor, Ronda Rousey, Joe Rogan & Dana White As His Mt. Rushmore Picks

Via a post on X, PFL founder Donn Davis revealed who would make it into his exclusive club for their contributions to the sport.

Rather than naming four fighters, he went slightly outside the box by listing two influential figures who have helped bring the sport to a whole new level.

Conor McGregor and Ronda Rousey were the two shared picks between White and Davis for the sheer amount of attention they have brought to MMA, with Rousey being credited for breaking down barriers in women’s MMA.

However, where they differ is in Davis’ two non-fighter picks, one of which was the UFC President, who Davis attributes with “Built the industry”.

It’s undeniable that White has been a massively significant figure when looking at the growth of the sport and in that same vein, the PFL founder included UFC commentator Joe Rogan on his list.

Not only does Rogan regularly feature on PPV broadcasts, his Joe Rogan Experience Podcast being one of the biggest in the world will have exposed so many new fans to the sport.

As Davis wrote in his social media post, Rogan has played a crucial role in “Explaining the sport to masses” which has helped to remove barriers to entry and stigmas surrounding mixed martial arts.

Ariel Helwani responds following ‘Weird comment’ from UFC star Joe Rogan: ‘He’s Dana White’s boy’

Canadian mixed martial arts journalist, Ariel Helwani has responded to what he labelled a “weird comment” from long-time UFC color commentary staple, Joe Rogan – in which the comedian and podcast host suggested Helwani had lured comments from UFC welterweight, Sean Brady following his October loss to Belal Muhammad, during a post-fight interview. Ariel Helwani […]

Ariel Helwani responds to comments from UFC caller, Joe Rogan

Rogan, a long-time color commentator and Octagon interviewer for the UFC, recently featured the above-mentioned, Muhammad on his podcast, The Joe Rogan Experience – in which Muhammad revealed to him that Brady had confirmed how following his TKO loss, his family and himself had received death threats from disgruntled bettors and fans.

As made knowledge to Helwani through a fan question on his show, The MMA Hour – Rogan alleged that the reporter had lured those comments from Philadelphia native, Brady, leading to a passionate response from the former.

“What the f*ck is that all about?” Ariel Helwani said. “First of all, I didn’t get Sean Brady to say that. Sean Brady just offered that up on his own. How could I have gotten him to say that? And what does that even mean in general: ‘Ariel Helwani likes to get people to say things’?”

“[That’s] especially rich coming from the guy who was pushing false narratives and false information and fake information and all kinds of nonsense over the past two years to the point where people were demanding that he get dropped from Spotify,” Ariel Helwani said. “Which I never agreed with. But I mean, of course, we know what the history is with Joe (Rogan) – he’s Dana’s (White) boy. He’s always gonna have his back. But what are we talking about? ‘Ariel Helwani likes to get people to say things.’ I ask questions, people answer them, I move on.” (Transcribed by MMA News)

Joe Rogan details potential pitfalls related to alcohol when it comes to athletes’ ability to recover and perform.

UFC commentator, Joe Rogan, is perhaps better known for his world-famous podcast, The Joe Rogan Experience. Rogan essentially interviews everyone under the sun on his podcast, including many fighters and athletes. Most recently, Rogan hosted the number 4 ranked Welterweight in the UFC, Belal Muhammad.

Rogan and Muhammad discussed many things in the nearly 3-hour-long conversation, including the importance of diet and alcohol restriction when it comes to performing at an elite level.

“Bars are everywhere. It’s fun. But the reality is, it’s f***ing terrible for you,” Rogan said. “And if you’re a professional athlete and you’re in this world of professional athleticism that has very little room for error, […] And if you can maximize your recovery and maximize your health and maximize your vitality by not drinking alcohol, I would you know, I would tell people to do it. […] guys who get drunk, guys who really like to party and drink, you are f***ing chipping away at your health. Yeah, there are no ifs, ands or buts about it.” (H/T MiddleEasy)

Joe Rogan urges fighters to limit their alcohol usage in order to maximize their career

This isn’t the first time Rogan has prompted sobriety as he participates in sober October yearly where he and his friend abstain from alcohol and recreational drugs for the month of October. The result of this practice provides them with a lot of health benefits which extend from better sleep to easier recovery after workouts.

Fighters tend to have grueling training sessions and typically more than one a day. So, recovery is essential for athletes in order to stay consistent with their training and develop new skills. The career of an MMA fighter is already volatile enough so it seems that it’s best if you limit anything that might lower your chances of excelling. For Joe Rogan, that is alcohol as he believes limiting alcohol usage will help athletes to maximize their health and get the most out of their careers.
